Liberty (17-10, 12-2) looks to push its season long win streak to 7 as they host High Point (14-12, 8-6) Tuesday night at 7.
1. With a Liberty win, the Flames would clinch a top 3 regular season Big South finish.
This would be the highest the Flames have finished in the Big South regular season since the 2010-11 season when the Flames finished 2nd at 13-5.
2. Liberty is looking for its 13th conference win of the season.
That mark would tie the program record set during the 2010-11 season. Liberty has never won more than 13 conference games in one regular season.
3. High Point is coming off an overtime loss to Radford.
The Panthers lost, 69-68, at home.
4. The Panthers had won 6 straight prior to dropping 2 of their last 3.
After starting Big South play at 1-4, Scott Cherry’s club reeled off 6 consecutive wins. Since then, they have losses to UNC Asheville and Radford with a win over Presbyterian sandwiched between.
5. The Flames defeated HPU in the team’s first meeting this season.
Liberty pulled off a 62-58 win in High Point.
6. Miles Bowman, Jr ranks in the top 10 in the conference in scoring and rebounding.
The 6’5″ redshirt- senior is 9th in scoring as he’s averaging 13.8 points and 2nd in rebounding averaging 8.4 boards per game.
7. KenPom gives the Flames a 75% chance at the win.
KenPom’s projected score is Liberty 66, CSU 59.
